Rod Stewart was one proud father as he shared a video of himself reacting to the news that his son, hockey player Liam Stewart, had scored his first international goal for Great Britain. Stood in front of a television, the music iconic beamed with pride as the announcer said: "Liam Stewart, the son of music legend Sir Rod Stewart and former model Rachel Hunter, scored his first international goal," shouting: "My boy!" in reaction to the footage.

Fans were quick to praise the video, with one commenting on the post: "Gotta LOVE the MAN Sir Rod, so proud of his son, Liam," while another added: "This makes me smile just watching you smile... What a proud Dad!" Liam's mum Rachel attended his match in Belfast, and captured the winning shot from the side lines. Tweeting the video, she wrote: "I just so happened to be filming. Go GB."

Liam, 22, recently opened up about his first match as part of GB's senior ice hockey side to The Sun, joking: "My dad was at the Celtic game at Hampden on Sunday – I saw him on the TV and it looked like he was enjoying what was a big win for them… When it comes down to watching Celtic or watching me I'm pretty sure he's going to pick Celtic most times, but I won't hold that against him, especially given the way they are playing at the moment! I'm still working on trying to convert him to hockey, he was at a club game to see me playing for Coventry earlier in the season and it would be nice to see him watch me play for GB."
